💬 Review

"Treacherous Beast," released on December 6, 2024, via Jawbreaker Records, showcases Templar's revitalized energy through three tracks of authentic old-school heavy metal. The title track is a fast-paced anthem featuring an infectious chorus and twin-guitar harmonies reminiscent of 1980s metal.

"Ringwraith," revamped from their "Black Knight" EP, benefits from tighter instrumentation and more dynamic vocals, highlighting the band's growth and improved cohesion. Its melodic depth and refined production make it a standout track.

The single closes with "I Natt," a mid-tempo Swedish-language song blending melody and power, reminiscent of Judas Priest and Heavy Load. Its sing-along appeal transcends language barriers, showing Templar's ability to connect with diverse audiences.

With matured songwriting, lineup changes, and enhanced production, "Treacherous Beast" reflects Templar's dedication to the genre and sets a promising course for their future in heavy metal.
